1499 Spirit Tea Business
Because of the pill cauldron, Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde’s attention quickly shifted away from the top-level Marrow Recovery Pill, and they stared fixedly at the cauldron for a long time. No matter how long they stared, however, this thing no longer belonged to them, but to someone else. Thinking this, Jing Hengran sucked in a cold breath of air in pain. Still, no matter how tempted he was, he wasn’t thick-skinned enough to ask for the pill cauldron back.
He made up his mind to check all the pill cauldrons in the store again. No, not just the pill cauldrons, but also all the goods in the Jing Auction House. He had to check them properly. If someone else picked up something good, he would really vomit blood.
Because of this pill cauldron, Jing Hengran’s interest in the Marrow Recovery Pill dropped a little, but in the end, this was the first time he had seen a ‘top-level’ Marrow Recovery Pill. Thinking of the effect of the Marrow Recovery Pill, he was overjoyed and excited. He suppressed the excitement in his heart, put the Marrow Recovery Pills back into the spirit bottle, and said to Chi Shuyan, “Miss Chi, I’m very satisfied with these ‘top-level’ Marrow Recovery Pills. You said before that the Marrow Restoration Pill can really improve talent?”
Seeing that the other party ignored the other effects, Chi Shuyan deliberated for a while before she said, “Indeed, but this Marrow Recovery Pill is mainly used to repair heart meridians. The target must be a cultivator whose cultivation has stagnated or who has been injured! Regular individuals without any injuries shouldn’t take this Marrow Recovery Pill rashly!”
She had already made herself very clear last time, so Jing Hengran naturally knew the effects of this medicinal pill and who could use it. He was asking again just to be sure. He already had an idea of one person who could use the pill, and he couldn’t wait to learn its true effects.
No matter how averse he was to losing the pill cauldron, he was at least a little comforted at the thought that he really had obtained three top-level Marrow Recovery Pills this time. Thinking of the other party’s cooperation with the Jing family and how she sold the pills she refined to the auction house, it could be considered a win-win situation to a certain extent.
Jing Hengran’s expression finally recovered a little, but he still felt a little reluctance. His previous enthusiastic attitude cooled a little. After confirming the medicinal effects of the Marrow Recovery Pill, he didn’t keep Chi Shuyan any longer.
This suited Chi Shuyan immensely. She was really afraid that he would enthusiastically invite her to have a meal again. In short, she didn’t want to have too much private contact with him. Firstly, Jing Hengran was too shrewd, and secondly, she had a lot of secrets; there was no benefit if they came into more contact.
Chi Shuyan put the pill cauldron back in her Cosmos Ring and went downstairs with Qian Zhengde, who was still in a daze. In the end, however, the pill cauldron belonged to the Jing family, and it was the Jing family who lost it. It had nothing to do with him. Although Qian Zhengde was also a little pained and curious, he was on good terms with Chi Shuyan, and privately felt that it was right that this good pill cauldron was given to Miss Chi.
Miss Chi could indeed use this pill cauldron to better refine top-level pills, but that didn’t mean that other alchemists were as talented as Miss Chi. In short, a good pill cauldron had to be matched with a good alchemist. Otherwise, no matter how good the pill cauldron was, it was useless. For example, the Jing family had once produced a talented alchemist, and the Jing family and the family head had nurtured her, giving her all the good pill cauldrons and herbs, but Miss Jing had never really refined top-level pills. From this, it could be seen that the most important thing about alchemists was their talent, not a good pill cauldron.
Thinking this, Qian Zhengde felt that this pill cauldron was fated to be with Miss Chi. Afraid that the person next to him would think too much, he broke the silence and said sincerely with a smile, “Miss Chi, you’re so lucky! Don’t worry, Young Master Jing will understand in a while! Besides, there are many other good things in the Jing family. Miss Chi, you don’t have to worry. No matter how good this pill cauldron is, it’s impossible for Young Master Jing to take it back! Besides, you were able to choose this pill cauldron from so many others, which means that this pill cauldron is indeed destined to be with you!”
Seeing Qian Zhengde’s sincere expression, Chi Shuyan curled her lip and thought to herself that even if the Jing family really wanted to take this pill cauldron back from her, it wouldn’t be a simple matter. Besides, from what she knew, this heir of the Jing family wouldn’t be that short-sighted. If he was, there was no need for her to continue cooperating with the Jing Auction House.
Between her and the pill cauldron, the other party should be able to tell which was more valuable. This was also the most important reason why she had divulged the matter of the pill cauldron.
Since the other party had spoken sincerely, Chi Shuyan also nodded sincerely. She didn’t continue talking about the pill cauldron, and instead probed about the spirit tea she had washed. “Manager Qian, I said before that I want to discuss another business deal with you. I washed this jar of spirit tea myself. I want to use the Jing Auction House to auction spirit tea. You can take a normal commission! Take this jar as a special token of my appreciation! As the saying goes, gifts are light, but feelings are heavy! I hope you don’t mind!”
Manager Qian hadn’t expected the other party to want to talk about spirit tea. When he received the small jar of spirit tea from Miss Chi in front of him, he still couldn’t react. It wasn’t that he disliked it, but he felt that the Jing family’s spirit tea was too famous. Why did she want to auction off spirit tea? This wasn’t necessarily a good thing. If there wasn’t a lot, he would be happy for the other party to ride on the reputation of the Jing Auction House. However, this spirit tea had to be of a certain standard, or it would ruin the reputation of the Jing family’s spirit tea.
Manager Qian hesitated for a moment before he said, “Miss Chi, how much spirit tea do you have to auction this time?”
Seeing this, Chi Shuyan immediately took out a large bag from her Cosmos Ring, which contained five or six small jars of tea leaves in it. It wasn’t a lot, as Chi Shuyan planned to test the waters with these first. Seeing that it wasn’t a lot, Manager Qian naturally agreed. He also gave her a lot of suggestions about using the reputation of the Jing family’s spirit tea to help her sell these.
Chi Shuyan immediately waved her hand and refused. “No need, Manager Qian. You can use my name to auction off the spirit tea. It’s fine even if the price is a little cheap.”
Chi Shuyan didn’t want to use the Jing family’s reputation and owe them such a big favor. Secondly, she was quite confident in the quality of her spirit tea.
Seeing Chi Shuyan’s attitude, Manager Qian thought even more highly of her and nodded. “Miss Chi, the Jing family will be holding an auction later. Will you be attending?”
